Slomo.tv has released the new mini-II cameras for video-refereeing systems with inter-camera synchronization technology. The camera appearance has also been changed – it includes new markings.
The process of development, production and refinement never ends. This applies not only to technical features, but also to all aspects of product manufacture, including appearance and usability.
At the end of 2020, the new mini-II compact cameras for video-refereeing systems were announced. While preserving the housing size, slomo.tv has seriously reworked and improved the cameras themselves and the internal software.
The main and most important change is that the mini-II cameras are now synchronous.
When used with a videoReferee® server, the cameras using CloudyGenLock® technology synchronize with each other by both phase and frequency. Camera setup can be done either through the server or by using an external remote controller with a joystick and a set of buttons connected via USB.
The scoreboard controller's data is now recorded in every video frame.
The analog audio input allows the use of external microphones to record sounds, including the referee's whistle. The audio level can be displayed on the video output for easy adjustment.
The final touch of the mini-II cameras is its new appearance. Now the main technical features of the camera are visible on its housing - support for Full HD progressive 50/59.98 modes, CloudyGenLock® synchronization, audio input, 3G SDI, Power over Ethernet. Sports, for which the camera is suitable, are also depicted on the camera housing - Hockey, Foosball, Basketball, Handball, Speed skating, Fencing, Wrestling, Canoe slalom, etc.
The mini-II series includes wide-angle panoramic cameras (mini-II-vR-Cam-zoom-Wide) and 10x zoom cameras (mini-II-vR-Cam-zoom).
Users of the first slomo.tv model mini cameras can upgrade to the mini-II at a big discount.
